The 15 most misunderstood job titles and what they REALLY mean

Most parents mean well — they really do have an interest
in what their kids do for a living.

But job titles like "user-interface designer" and "civil servant"
aren't exactly the most descriptive, and they leave
many parents scratching their heads.

In LinkedIn's 2015 global study,

all. But they also said they want to know.

To help bridge the gap, here are 15 of the most misunderstood
jobs in America, according to LinkedIn's survey, and how you
could explain them to struggling parents.
